Today is a public holiday in Tonga to celebrate the Birthday of Crown Prince Tupouto’a-‘Ulukalala. The Crown Prince, born on 17 September, 1985, is the eldest son of HM King Tupou VI and Queen Nanasipau’u. The birthday falls on a Sunday this year, and commemorates on Monday.
Prince Tupouto’a ‘Ulukalala was born on September 17th 1985. The prince became the heir apparent to the throne in 2012 when his father, King Tupou VI, ascended to the throne. The Crown Prince and Crown Princess Sinaitakala Tuku’aho married in July 2012 and have three children.
In Tongan mythology, the Polynesian Sun god, Tangaloa, pulled the islands of Tonga from the sea using a tortoiseshell and a whalebone fishhook. During the god’s expedition, the shell and hook ripped an opening in the islands of Naupapu. This fishing line snapped, causing pieces of the island to fall into the sea, leaving Tonga as it is today.
CATZILLA!!!
Today is the birthday, in 1939, of Frankie Avalon, (1959 US No.1 & UK No.16 single ‘Venus’). On his twenty-first birthday, Frankie Avalon was given $600,000 (£330,000) that he earned as a minor from such hits as his 1959 US No.1 single ‘Venus’. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fakpqLDEQAo
